Ninja Kid has a creative writing requirement at her school; she has to submit two fictional stories every six weeks along with some poetry. I present some snippets. ******************** Nighttime At night is when I sleep. When I sleep, I dream. When I dream, it makes me happy. When I’m happy, I don’t want to [...]

(By the way, when I’m using the possessive for Mini-Me, should I call [...]

They’re studying fractions and this particular question was asking about the shaded area of a 1″ square. The square [...]
Mini-Me is ill. I think it’s just a sinus infection, but she doesn’t feel well and I think she’s running a low-grade fever. She’ll be staying home from school tomorrow, which is both good and bad. Good because it means I don’t have to set my alarm clock; bad because it’s not likely to be [...]
